Including everything, $53.3 Billion for 2012. IF my math is correct that's approximately 40% of our current budget deficit. It makes absolutely no sense whatsoever to borrow money we don't have only to give it away, much of it to countries that don't even like the US.
You are correct, thanks for pointing it out. (I still thinks it's a waste of money we don't have to waste though)
Good ol Luke, yesterday couldn't spell or type. Today you can't multiply. Lemme guess, it was the spell checker

Worse, he thinks 53 billion is 4 percent of 15 trillion. I thought windows based laptops have calculators built in?
